where is the fuse panel control the fuel pump.
There is no specific fuse for the fuel pump. The pump is controlled by the MPI relay (probably center dash behind the radio) The MPI relay is controlled by the ECU.
If the fuse that runs the ECU (and lots of other stuff), all that other stuff won't run either. Do all the gauge pod lights come on when you turn on the ignition? Does the Check Engine light come on and then go off? If no gauge light lights (and nothing else had stopped working) your ECU is probably fried.
If your fuel pump is not working (or not delivering gas) , its either a) the MPI relay has given up; or b) the ECU has given up trying to control it; or c) the fuel pump has stopped working (in the tank); or d) the fuel filter (black or green tank on the firewall) may be blocked.
There's a floating connector in the engine bay on the firewall somewhere (black as I recall, but may be brown) thats a test point for the fuel pump power. You can also try applying 12v on this point to check if the fuel pump is working. You should at least be able to hear the pump make some whirring noise when power is applied.

Thanks Can you tell me what's the MPI? Sorry im french
and where can i find it? what's MPI look like
thanks aga>> where is the fuse panel control the fuel pump.
The MPI Relay is a can about 5x4x3 cm, with a 2x4 or 2x5 connector on it. Its PROBABLY in the dash behind the radio: this is the common location in many Mitsubishi's. If you turn on the ign, you should be able to feel the really click, if not also hear it.
If you are near Gatineau Quebec, Provincial Spares probably have some spares. May well be the same part found in the 93-93 Colt/Summit.
